1-36 MonarchNet for TCP/IP
Specifying binary mode is important for all jobs. Most FTP
implementations default to ASCII mode. This may cause
unexpected or undesired printing results.

Initially the print server does not have an IP address. When the print server
powers up, it attempts to get an IP address via RARP, BOOTP, GLEANING,
or DHCP. Monarch has provided IP address initialization in MonarchNet for
TCP/IP (as outlined in print server installation) as well as in a stand-alone
BOOTP server.

The way print jobs are queued to a Remote LPD system varies among the
vendors that support TCP/IP. Unix systems that are BSD-based typically use
the "lpr" program to submit print jobs. Other Unix systems may use the "lp"
program to submit print jobs. PC-based TCP/IP packages often provide a
command line "lpr" program and a utility to redirect the output of an LPT port
to a Remote LPD system. Consult your system documentation for information
on how to submit print jobs to a Remote LPD system.
Monarch print server LPD implementation does not
support any Unix LPD input or output filters or the direct
printing of banner pages. It is possible to configure some
Unix systems so that banner pages and input and output
filters will be generated at the Unix host and then sent to
the print server.
